Custom Dashboards

The predefined metrics featured within your pre-built dashboards were hand-picked by industry experts which serve to answer the fundamental questions you have about player data in your games. But what if you have a different view in mind? You can create your own tailored reports with Custom Dashboards.

The Custom Dashboards tool is a powerful feature, especially if you want to display metrics that are specific to your design events. Custom dashboards are really useful for creating unique overviews, to present data differently to your pre-built dashboards. For example, you can:

Create dashboards centred around your player’s interaction with your game, this could include a breakdown of your players spending habits, or tracking the most in demand characters, items or bonuses.

Mediate all the data-views that are important to you into one view, including alternative visualisations types to help you understand the significance of the data in a visual context you prefer.

Further breakdown your performance metrics across a wider range of dimensions. Understand which metrics may have a causal effect on your player’s playing activity.
